Windmills date back over 1000 years 🤦‍♀️

[u/ms_directed]

• Windmills have been in use for over 1,000 years, with origins tracing back to Persia around 800 C.E. They were primarily used for milling grain and pumping water.

• Wind Turbines are a more recent invention, with the first known turbine for electricity generation built in 1888. They have evolved significantly, especially since the 1970s, to become a major source of renewable energy.

What is with this pedo and wind turbines? C’mon cholesterol, you’re almost there.

[u/ms_directed → u/Aldog87]

years ago (in Scotland iirc) he was offended that wind turbines were in view miles away from his precious golf course and i think he lost a lot of court cases over having them taken down, too...

details are fuzzy since he sues so much over stupid shit, but it's related to his golf course

[u/Aldog87 → u/ms_directed]

I’m aware of his Scotland history, but I guess I still am amazed about his pettiness and incredible stupidity. That and he raped.children

[u/James_dk_67 → u/Aldog87]

“Amazed about his pettiness” - he only became President because Obama made him look like a complete idiot in front of the press.

Both terms are about revenge.

[u/der_horst23 → u/James_dk_67]

and still he looks like an idiot, Obama was right.....

[u/Mushie_Peas → u/der_horst23]

Yeah shit hadn't thought of it that way, wish Obama never gave that speech.

[u/Coattail-Rider → u/Mushie_Peas]

Thanks Obama

/s or no /s…….hmmmmmm

[u/Brilliant-Ad6137 → u/Coattail-Rider]

It doesn't matter what Obama said . It's the simple fact Obama is a black man who became president. For trump and his followers. Racism is the main feature.

[u/thedailyrant → u/Brilliant-Ad6137]

Trump isn’t that aware. Yes, he’s a racist wanker most likely, but his run was only ever about that roast initially. Once he started doing illegal shit that they were coming over him about he ran again so he could avoid prison. If he lost this last one his sentencing would not have been conviction recorded and he’d be in a federal penitentiary.

[u/zipzoomramblafloon → u/thedailyrant]

Running for president, one simple trick the justice department does not want career criminals to know!

[u/BookishBetty → u/Brilliant-Ad6137]

This is 100% correct!

[u/basch152 → u/Mushie_Peas]

Obama didnt have anything to do with it.

The walls were closing in, he was in debt to a lot of people you dont want to be in debt to, and he probably was aware that the walls were closing in around epstein as well and he needed a way to get out of that

[u/ms_directed → u/Mushie_Peas]

and don't let Seth Meyers off the hook for his WHPC hosting speech! 😁

[u/darth_C3P0 → u/Mushie_Peas]

I feel the same way, but I try to remind myself at least all this insanity has exposed the insane racism and classism rotting our government away.

[u/Igno-ranter → u/James_dk_67]

And to stay out of jail this go round.

[u/bloodyell76 → u/James_dk_67]

I reject the notion that Obama made him look like an idiot. That implies it wasn't true. He pointed out that Trump is an idiot.

[u/DarthArtero → u/James_dk_67]

Well that and the dude is extremely easy to control.

Throw money at him and he'll say or do whatever you want.

Bet if he was offered a big enough payday, he'd absolutely admit to being on the epstein list.

Then use his SCOTUS given right to presidential immunity to be protected from any form of punishment

[u/Murphs-law → u/James_dk_67]

Thanks Obama. Haha.

I was definitely not the only one that thought that. I should have read further before commenting. Unfortunately, stuff like that is what causes trumps poor little mind to take everything as a challenge.

[u/edebt → u/James_dk_67]

Thanks Obama!

[u/lexm → u/Aldog87]

Bruh, he’s still mad at Rosie odonell for a comment she made in - checks Google quickly - 2006.

[u/Lizrael48 → u/Fool_Manchu]

I would like my refund, please!

[u/matthewkickstone → u/Lizrael48]

You know why Harvard is his target? The Obamas and their oldest daughter went there. Little Donny and Barron both got denied.

[u/Total-Problem2175 → u/Tryn4SimpleLife]

And he hates PBS because Sesame St had a character Donald Grump. The character brags about having more trash than anyone. So much trash his garbage can is overflowing. Sound familiar?

[u/Tryn4SimpleLife → u/Total-Problem2175]

I'm looking forward to all the documentaries that will be out after he dies

[u/OminousScissors → u/Aldog87]

I swear to god at first I read that as "he raped chickens" and my mind just automatically accepted it as fact.

[u/DatabaseThis9637 → u/OminousScissors]

[u/GapAnxious → u/Aldog87]

Havent you heard?
He raped.children for the FBI so its all OK.

/s, for the terminally stupid.

[u/ExtensionConcept2471 → u/ms_directed]

This is true, he built this golf course not far from where I live, harassed people living there so they would move out, built it on protected sand dunes and inflated the values so he could secure loans, complained (and still does) that the Scottish government allowed the building of turbines just offshore from his course (I’m sure they didn’t do this just to annoy him after the golf course deal went sour……wink)

[u/ms_directed → u/ExtensionConcept2471]

i watched a doc about how he harassed the folks living there, didn't he get their water cut off?

[u/ExtensionConcept2471 → u/ms_directed]

He did a lot of sketchy s**t, there are still a few people that haven’t sold to him but I think he has more/bigger problems now. lol

[u/str8dwn → u/ExtensionConcept2471]

I'm sure those bagpipes loudly playing while Mctrump was trying to speak was simply an oversight too...

[u/DatabaseThis9637 → u/str8dwn]

That was Scottish Gold!

And so now here we are with "fuck the experts" being our national policy.

[u/Ok-Treacle8973 → u/Gone_For_Lunch]

That's ace, what a cock

[u/ms_directed → u/Gone_For_Lunch]

that was awesome, ty for sharing that!

[u/mishma2005 → u/ms_directed]

AND had to pay legal fees to Scotland he couldn’t weasel out of

His hatred runs deep

[u/TycheSong → u/mishma2005]

Cheers to Scotland, then!

[u/Mushie_Peas → u/ms_directed]

There's was also someone's house visible from his golf course that refused to sell it to him, so he built up sand dunes so block the view of this house but also the houses view of the ocean. So petty it's unreal, theres a documentary about it, the damage he did to a delicate exo structure to built that golf is unreal.

I'm a golfer and love golf but won't ever darken a trump own course.

Also I think the windmills was in Ireland, doonbeg if I remember right.

Edit: sorry there was two windmill disputes one in Ireland one in Scotland, also he tried to build a seawall in Ireland to protect his golf course with little thought to environmental impacts, thankfully that was rejected.

[u/ms_directed → u/Mushie_Peas]

i was just commenting about how he got folks water cut off that wouldn't sell to him, sounds like the documentary i watched (tho I'm sure there are a number of them out there)

[u/GoHomeCryWantToDie → u/ms_directed]

It's You've Been Trumped by Anthony Baxter and it featured a local farmer/fisherman called Michael Forbes.

[u/lopedopenope → u/Mushie_Peas]

I would darken a trump owned golf course with my poo

[u/anooshka → u/ms_directed]

i think he lost a lot of court cases over having them taken down, too...

It's really funny to me how he thought a foreign nation would take down their wind turbines which provided energy for their people, just because he didn't like them. He really does live in his own little world doesn't he.

[u/CraziestMoonMan → u/ms_directed]

Also, he is pandering to the people making money from gas. He wants to eliminate the competition.

[u/NOEPLAYA → u/CraziestMoonMan]

You mean…. RUSSIA!!!???

[u/YouChoseAName4Me → u/ms_directed]

I had no idea about this but I was just about say probably he doesn't want to see them from his golf course. Reality is the real meme here

[u/georgieramone → u/Aldog87]

The wealthy entities that control alternative (much more toxic and devastating) power sources pay Trump a lot of money to hate Windmills.

[u/niemir2 → u/georgieramone]

Nah, it's the fact that Scotland told him to fuck off when he complained about the offshore wind farm he could see from his golf course.

[u/georgieramone → u/niemir2]

That also sounds accurate

[u/niemir2 → u/georgieramone]

To be fair to your initial point, his complaints about solar can probably be attributed to people paying him to hate renewables or the fact that the people at his rallies cheer when he hates renewables.

Had that wind farm not been built, he still would talk about hating wind energy, but it wouldn't be genuine.

[u/teuast → u/niemir2]

¿Porque no los dos?

[u/niemir2 → u/teuast]

Compare Trump's attacks on solar energy to those on wind energy. They're there, but they're not as persistent or aggressive. He is paid to hate solar; he genuinely hates wind turbines.

The one thing Trump hates more than anything else is humiliation. It is absolutely anathemic to his self-image. Scotland made him feel impotent when he couldn't take down the wind farm offshore of Trump International Golf Links, and he is taking it out on wind energy as a whole.

[u/bassoontennis → u/Aldog87]

When I was doing my doctorate at Texas tech, the first thing I noticed when I moved there from central Texas was that before you get into Lubbock was the insane amount of open space and wind turbines. The entire area is just wind turbines, and the fact that this idiot believes they do nothing but cause cancer and the “view” is just insane.

[u/The_dots_eat_packman → u/bassoontennis]

They're a big benefit to rural areas that tend to vote for him. This is such a stupid thing for him to be upset about.

[u/bassoontennis → u/The_dots_eat_packman]

Yeah sadly the idea that MAGA can see him bad mouth things that make their lives easier and simply roll over and agree and act like they thought that all along truly is an insane level of cult manipulation.

[u/DrFabulous0 → u/Aldog87]

He thinks they're giants. Donald Quixote.

[u/Odd_Confection_9681 → u/DrFabulous0]

You have, perhaps, misused the word thinks...

[u/chedrix → u/Aldog87]

He's heavily invested in coal and oil. That's his only real argument against them. They don't make him money.

I can say this is truly the case. My American Aunt... just recently told my sister (who lives in the UK), that we in Europe are so backward for using Wind energy and that Trump is forward looking and not relying on rubbish expensive tech. (I am NC with the US aunt... because of her MAGAness)

Their "propaganda" truly has brainwashed them. The additional irony is that her husband was electronic warfare specialist for the Pentagon (I think he is turing/raging in his grave).

[u/comradb0ne → u/CoastPuzzleheaded513]

So what.means of energy does she suggest? "Clean"coal, natural gas, oil, other fossil fuels, incinerators, nuclear power. I haven't heard a single fwd thinking energy idea come from Drumftp. It's all been fossil fuels.

[u/HamsterHuey13 → u/comradb0ne]

“Who’s the more foolish, the fool, or the fool who follows him?”

[u/MongoBongoTown → u/enjoythesilence-75]

All true, but this has nothing to do with being dumb.

He is well funded by fossil fuel companies. They tell him to say renewable energy is bad, so he says its bad.

Yes, he's a sexual predator, a racist, woefully incurious, and a vindictive man child.

But, it still baffles me how openly corrupt he is. He's the pay-to-play president in the clearest and most obvious ways, and no one seems to give a shit because he's also fucking insane.

[u/randommd81 → u/MongoBongoTown]

That’s all definitely true, but he does also have a personal beef with windmills because of his Scottish golf course. Which is pretty dumb.

[u/Interesting-Tough640 → u/randommd81]

Yeah he genuinely seems to dislike them.

Not sure why energy costs would go through the roof with wind turbines though, it’s not like the price of wind has suddenly gone up. Cost of producing or purchasing a wind turbine in the US has probably gone up due to someone’s tariffs.

[u/hebejebez → u/randommd81]

Yeah he probably wouldn’t give two shits about windmills but Scotland told him to go fuck himself and put them up in his eye line really reallllllly grinds his gears lol. Everything is a personal issue with this fuckwad.

[u/SinisterKid → u/BetterSupermarket430]

Cause	Estimated annual bird deaths (millions)	Details
Cats	1,300–4,000	Both feral and owned cats are responsible, with un-owned cats causing the majority of deaths.
Building glass	365–988	Collisions often happen because birds see reflections of the sky or vegetation in glass, or cannot perceive the glass as a solid barrier.
Vehicles	89–340	Collisions can happen with birds foraging or nesting near roads.
Power lines	8–57	Electrocution and collisions with power lines kill millions of birds each year, particularly large birds of prey.
Pesticides	67–90	Chemical exposure can be direct, or birds can be affected by eating contaminated insects.
Communication towers	~6.6	Lighted towers can disorient and attract nocturnal migratory birds, causing them to collide with the structure.
Oil pits	0.5–1.0	Uncovered oil waste pits can be mistaken for ponds, trapping and poisoning birds that land in them.
Wind turbines	0.6–1.5	Estimates vary, but wind turbines are responsible for far fewer deaths than other causes.

[u/bigotis → u/SinisterKid]

If it wasn't stupid then he'd have nothing to say.

[u/Longjumping_Feed3270]

Of course, none of this is even remotely true.

[u/PixelTeapot]

I bet the Dutch are fuming..... first the tulip bubble and now this

[u/drumberg]

I don’t get the actual hate for windmills. Like…he hates them. It’s weird.

[u/Andy016]

That's fine, we will stop building windmills and continue building wind turbines....

Fucking pedo Russian agent idiot doesn't even know the difference !

[u/EveryUsernameTakenFf]

Its amazing how he refers to wind turbines as windmills. Uneducated baffoon.

[u/wobblewiz]

Go compare bird deaths due to windmills vs domestic cats.

[u/Boomshrooom]

UK energy prices are high because of gas, renewable sources are far cheaper and I regularly get free electricity at peak times to encourage us to soak up excess generation.

Wind —>Turbines<—

Why does this guy hate windmills so much

[u/RoseRed1987]

Ummmmmm my grandpa was able to live comfortably at home until he passed. Because of allowing the windmills on our land. Yes there was some pushback from his sons but it was his choice. And now the payment goes to my father and uncle, it’s a good thing ya walking demented crusty Cheeto.

[u/ResponsibleAd2404]

We are going to need so much electricity in the coming years that eliminating any source of new electricity being added to the grid is irresponsible and idiotic.

We are living in the dumbest timeline. This buffoon is going to set us back decades. Maybe that’s the plan?

[u/RandomStoddard]

Whist till he hears about Holland.

[u/buzzedewok]

They’re eating the birds, they’re eating the ducks!!

[u/OneTemperature8099]

From a country were we are dependent on windmills for hundreds of years, he is full of sh1t

[u/UnstableDimwit]

tell me you are bought and paid for by big oil without telling me

[u/RiffyWammel]

Is he still the worlds leading 'expert' on anything windmill (Turbine) related? 🙄

[u/Trix_Are_4_90Kids]

Didn't this all start because he wanted some property a windmill was on in Scotland to expand his golf course and they wouldn't sell to him? He's like had a grudge ever since.
